That cooker is dangerously close to the fridge. It's a fire hazard.

Is it? Genuine question, in my apartment the fridge is also right next to the stove and there is nothing that can be done to move it (it was that way when I rented it).

I’m not sure if it’s a hazard or not, per se, but it will definitely impact the performance of the fridge and reduce its usable lifespan. I’ve had this same situation in multiple homes I rented over the years. Sometimes it is unavoidable, but you would do well to move the fridge to a different location and put another cabinet next to the stove for safety. I had neighbors growing up who had a son get doused in boiling water as a result of an exposed stove side—even if you don’t have kids, it’s just a good precaution.

Edit: by the by, Google “kitchen triangle design” for an effective strategy for laying out a kitchen. Move the fridge to the adjacent wall (right side in the photo) and put another cabinet piece in its place and you are good to go.

Assuming the fridge is made of metal, isn't is safer than a cabinet? Efficiency may be noticably worse, especially if poorly insulated, but I don't understand the safety aspect.

It's about the fridge insulation. Some may have fire retardant, some may not. It's risky.

Well... none of the papers are up to the standards of the Money Laundering crowd.

And no one is talking about neck problems.
